About this item

There are lots of wild stories about Led Zeppelinsome true, some false. Led Zeppelin on Led Zeppelin dishes up the facts, in the bands own words, as they saw them. It shoots down the folklore and assumptions about Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Paul Jones, and John Bonham and presents the bands full history, from when Jimmy Page was playing skiffle to the day the band was honored by the Kennedy Center for their contribution to American and global culture. Any band is an amalgam of the players, but in very special cases, those players form an entity unto itself. Led Zeppelin on Led Zeppelin captures the ideas of all of the bands members at the time they created classics like Whole Lotta Love, Stairway to Heaven, and Kashmir but also encapsulates the idea of the band itself as it crafted the music that changed pop culture.
